Worst house in the best street!
Pros:

One of the best locations in Auckland.

Cons:

Very run down, we had 2 rooms each with a bathroom. 1 shower couldnt be used as it was completely broken, tiles cracked on the floor, paint/furniture chipped & very tired.
Fridge leaked water all over the floor which had to be continually mopped up.
Carpets were "sticky"
Sofas were worn & sagging,
Internet could only be used by 1 person at a time & even then very slow verging on not working.

Very central location
Pros:

Excellent size 1 brm appartment. Spotlessly clean. Really comfortable king sized bed. Small balcony with a view of the park across the road. Great kitchenette with full size fridge freezer, and dishwasher drawer, oven, and 2 burner hob. Large dining table, excellent as a work desk at one end and dining table at the other, and 2 x 2 seater couches. Washing machine and drier in the bathroom

Cons:

Having to go up a set of 5 stairs in the hallway was a surprise - I have a knee injury, so deliberately booked there because there was elevator access .... the building is a split level type concept though, and our apartment was up five stairs after the elevator ride - difficult for lugging lots of luggage to your room, and really difficult for anyone with mobility issues. The shower over the bath was disappointing for the same reason - clambering over a bath with a knee injury is difficult. Otherwise though - awesome place to stay

Power cut overnight meant cold showers in the morning! Maybe should have been told when booking?
